It's not a matter of understanding, at least as far as speaking for myself. What it is is, how did SE take something that worked and then create something that failed? I agree with the OP because I JUST talked to my little brother about the lack of feeling that my character(s) are really mine and progressing. I don't feel as much accomplishment when I R up my DD or Mage classes. I do when I craft but not on my other jobs.

Yes farming was boring in XI but so far I don't find "farming" in XIV to be boring at all. Half the time when you are lvling a job you end up "farming" stuff anyway like shards and other craftable material. It's a HECK of a lot easier in XIV then XI so THAT part they did right imho. Besides to me in XI the quests to get the items being discussed were part of your characters story and lore. That IS missing here. That to me personaly is the biggest problem still remaing in Eorzea.
